Sony officially unveiled the release of the updated version of the NEX-3 earlier this week. The Sony NEX-C3 camera, although rather petite, is very high-powered and capable of taking stunning, sharp and high-quality photographs.
According to Hypebeast, the Sony NEX-C3 camera "currently holds the title of the world’s smallest APS-C sensor camera." The camera in the images is showcased in a sleek silver finish but upon release, the device will be available in a variety of colors.
